Mount Washington, Mountain peak in Vancouver Island Ranges, British Columbia, Canada.

Mount Washington is a mountain in the Vancouver Island Ranges, rising on the eastern side of Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada. It reaches around 1,600 meters and offers ski slopes in winter and hiking trails across varied terrain in summer.

Captain George Richards named the mountain after Rear Admiral John Washington of the British Royal Navy during a coastal mapping expedition in the 1860s. The name followed the common practice of the time, which linked mapped features to figures from the British navy.

The mountain's name honours Rear Admiral John Washington, hydrographer of the British Royal Navy, chosen by Captain George Richards while charting the coast in the 1860s. Today the east face carries transmitter sites for CKLR-FM (97.3 MHz), CFCP-FM (98.9 MHz) and CHAN-TV-4, serving the Comox Valley and Campbell River, alongside several amateur radio repeaters.

The mountain is reached through Mount Washington Alpine Resort, which offers equipment rentals, dining, and lodging on site. The access road can be demanding in winter weather, so checking road conditions before heading up is a good idea.

The mountain is home to the Tony Barrett Marmot Recovery Centre, a facility dedicated to protecting the Vancouver Island marmot, an animal found nowhere else on Earth. The centre breeds marmots in captivity and releases them into the wild as part of an ongoing effort to keep the species from disappearing.
